Green-Rainbow Campaign Financing Standards
Saturday March 29, @11:45PM, by John Andrews, Jill Stein
Subject : Campaign Financing
Summary :
This proposal concerns requirements for campaign financing that would be placed upon candidates for endorsement by the Green-Rainbow Party. Adoption of this proposal would make a clear and significant distinction between the Green-Rainbow Party and other political parties.
Text :
Prior to receiving the endorsement of the Green-Rainbow Party for state or local office, candidates must make a commitment to refuse campaign donations from corporate lobbyists or from officers of corporations who employ such lobbyists. This commitment must include a willingness to promptly return any such donations that are accepted and later found to be in violation of the restriction.

  What about lobbyists who work for community organizations (small non-profit organizations)? Or unions?

  "This commitment must include a willingness to promptly return any such donations that are accepted and later found to be in violation of the restriction."
  
  1. We need to be CLEAR that community based organizations, non-governmental organizations, and trade unions are excluded from this motion.
  
  2. I would rewrite the above quote so as to avoid pablum on this issue, e.g. [attach to previous paragraph]"and promptly return any such donations that are accepted and later found to be in violation of the restriction."
